67/68/69 cuda dilemma

The spare tire well i actually had shipped in from a michigan fabo member. So yes up there theres still some good stuff to be had unless he brought the car in from a dry state. He was going race car setup with fuel cell. BTW, i used to live in a crusty assed rust belt state up north. I am well aware of how shitty it is to cars.

I remember having to use an assload of WD40 on everything, the ole bernsomatic torch for heating up bolts to loosen them, replacing rusted to **** hardware with stainless steel hardware, using antisieze compound on everything, 10 year old cars and trucks you could shove your fist through the body panels, rust proofing the bodys on new vehicles just to slow down that **** for a few more years, winterizing your good car around late october, and driving a ratty rusted piece of **** all winter long, and pulling your good car out of hibernation after the spring rains wash the residual salt away. Yes i remember that bullshit all too well. And no i dont miss it one bit.

We should start a thread in the same vein as jeff foxworthys you might be a redneck.

I can start.

If dissassembling something on your car starts with a cutoff wheel and a hacksaw instead of wrenches. "You might live in a rustbelt state"

If any repair on your daily driver involves the purchase of new stainless steel hardware to replace rusty frozen ****, " You might live in a rustbelt state"

If you make a hard turn, and stuff flies out of the side of your trunk, "You might live in a rustbelt state"
